Chapter 11: Overcoming Fear

In the boxing gym, Wang Ben wore a helmet and protective gear on his head, and he sparred the students very seriously.

Although the strength of the students in the gym is not strong, and everyone comes to practice boxing in their spare time, there are several students who have practiced for many years after all, and their boxing strength is still very good.

When sparring them together, Wang Ben practiced defense and dodging very seriously.

However, in the ring, the space is only so large that it is impossible to dodge it all, and a student who has practiced boxing for six years, named Li Xiaobing, is the largest and the strongest in the gym. Of course, Li Xiaobing's strength is not his technical skill, but his weight.

Boxing is a sport that requires a very detailed weight, in the boxing ring, of course, the weight is very advantageous, Li Xiaobing is twenty kilograms heavier than Wang Ben, if it is a competition, the two are not at the same level at all, but this is not a competition, of course, it is not so particular.

Bang......

A punch landed on Wang Ben's chest, and the thick armor made a loud noise.

"Damn, do you want to put such a heavy hand?" Wang Ben was depressed in his heart, he was a sparring partner, he could only defend and couldn't fight back, and when he ran into a big man like Li Xiaobing, he had to bear it.

Boxing masters are different, Wang Ben is very good at dealing with other students, but it is difficult to avoid it in front of Li Xiaobing, his fists are not only fast, but also have long arms.

Several punches in a row hit Wang Ben's chest, especially when he punched him on the head, although there was a thick helmet cushion, he still felt a little dazzled.

"You have to overcome your fears, keep your eyes open, no matter how big the attack is, don't close your eyes, the most basic key for a boxer is to open your eyes, even if you close your eyes for a fraction of a second, you are likely to be hit by heavy punches, you can only become a good fighter by overcoming the fear in your heart and changing your body's natural reactions."

I don't know when, Lu Biao and an old man stood next to him, and it was the old man who spoke.

The reason is very simple, everyone understands it, but it is not so easy to achieve, Wang Ben has practiced for a lot of time, but when the real fist is smashed, his eyes are still involuntarily closed.

At this time, Li Xiaobing also saw Coach Lu and Yuan Zhengtu, and suddenly stopped.

"I understand the truth, but after practicing for a long time, I still can't change the conditioned reflex of my eyes, and I can't keep my fist open when I reach my eyes." Wang Ben exhaled, shook his head and said.

"You have to know that kung fu is played, not practiced, if you want to change yourself, you must practice actual combat, the first step to overcome closed eyes is to stare at the opponent when facing an attack, and dodge by swinging your head, not by dodging or retreating through your body, and blindly dodging your body will only make your brain form fear." Yuan Zhengtu said.

Could it be that my training method was wrong during this time?

Indeed, too much attention is paid to dodging, but ignoring the body's natural reaction, once you encounter a stronger opponent, it is easy to fall into the rhythm of the opponent, just like just now, if Li Xiaobing does not stop, I will be beaten by him.

This old man is not simple! Wang Ben said secretly in his heart.

"Let me introduce, this is Coach Yuan, and he will teach everyone to practice boxing in the future, you must not underestimate Coach Yuan, he is my teacher, and he has obtained a boxing coach license in the United States, and he is one of the best boxing coaches in China." Lu Biao introduced to all the students.

Yuan Zhengtu shook his head and smiled, nodded at everyone, and then looked at Wang Ben and said, "You are Wang Ben?" Hello, I will guide you in the future. ”

Wang Ben nodded and said, "Can you help me overcome the closure of my eyes?" ”

"The method is very simple, it is actual combat, if you want to overcome this in the short term, you have to cross-sparring with people, I think the student's weight and strength are okay, you have a round of cross-training with him, you are a one-round sparring partner, and then he is a one-round sparring partner, and when you can dodge and move, you can still punch effectively, and when you face a fist hitting the face, you can also ensure that you don't blink, don't retreat, don't bend over, you can have a real ring fight." Yuan Zhengtu smiled faintly.

"But the South China Boxing Championship will start in a week, is it too late?" Wang Ben frowned.

"That's up to you, not me."

Wang Ben nodded, put the tooth tray back into his mouth, and nodded at Li Xiaobing, letting him continue to attack him.

At this moment, he firmly remembered the old man's words just now, his eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Li Xiaobing's fist, even if he hit the helmet, he tried his best not to let his body retreat, his eyes remained open, and he dodged by moving his head.

In the first round, Wang Ben received five or six punches in the face, but fortunately Li Xiaobing didn't use all his strength, otherwise he would definitely have a blue nose and swollen face.

In the second round, Wang Ben attacked, and Li Xiaobing served as a sparring partner.

At this time, Wang Ben found out the difference, he thought that his punch was strong and fast, and it would be very easy to hit Li Xiaobing, but the fact was just the opposite, after a round, he didn't effectively hit Li Xiaobing.

After resting for a while, Wang Ben couldn't help but admire the new Yuan coach.

He's right, punches are made, not practiced! I have been practicing boxing, although the strength and speed have fully met the requirements, but I have never hit anyone's boxing, it is not a good boxing at all.

In the third round, Wang Ben has already improved a little, he can control his body reactions, and he can not retreat in the face of Li Xiaobing's fists, do not bow his head, and keep his eyes open.

……

In the afternoon, the two spent the rest of the game all the time, and they forgot how many rounds they fought.

"If you don't fight, your kid's fists are getting heavier and heavier, and the speed is getting faster and faster, and if you keep fighting, my ribs will be broken by you." Li Xiaobing took off his gloves depressedly, touched his right ribs with his hand, and shouted loudly.

Wang Ben has completely become accustomed to the rhythm of boxing, and his eyes will never close again in front of Li Xiaobing's fist, and he finally overcame this bad physical conditioning. Moreover, with the actual combat between the two of them, Wang Ben couldn't hit each other at first, and then it was easy to judge Li Xiaobing's dodge direction.

In the end, Li Xiaobing only had to be beaten, and after several rounds in a row, Li Xiaobing finally quit.

In fact, Wang Ben was able to adapt so quickly, the most important thing was that the foundation of his previous martial arts training was there, as long as he went through a few rounds of actual combat, he quickly entered the state.

Yuan Zhengtu accompanied him all afternoon, pointing from time to time, nodding and smiling, when Wang Ben took off his armor, he finally couldn't help but admire: "Wang Ben, you are the fastest adaptive boxer I have ever seen, even in the United States, few people can overcome the body's instinctive defensive reaction in one day, but you have done it, and you adapt to the rhythm of boxing very fast, so to speak, your boxing talent is extremely high, and your physical condition is also very good, you are a natural boxing champion seedling." ”

Li Xiaobing also came over at this time and said with a wry smile: "Coach Yuan is right, Wang Ben, this kid is really a pervert, I have practiced boxing for six years, and it took me a year to overcome the problem of closing my eyes, I don't know how many beatings I have received, this kid has surpassed me in just one afternoon, it's so fucking shocking." ”

Wang Ben smiled, at this moment he finally understood that he had practiced martial arts for thirteen years, and if he had not practiced actual combat, his physical fitness would indeed be very good, but if he met some gangsters who often fought, he would definitely suffer a big loss.

I remember reading a report in my previous life, saying that it was a young man, his parents spent a lot of money, so that he learned martial arts in Shaolin Temple for ten years, and then because of an incident with a gangster, everyone thought that the young man won steadily, after all, he had studied martial arts for ten years, how to say that he could also learn some real kung fu, right? And he usually watches him play boxing, but the result is unexpected, he was taken down by the gangsters in a few moments, which became a joke in the local area.

At this time, it seems that if that young man has the opportunity to practice actual combat, even if it is a day or two of practice, the result will definitely not be like that.
